So a buddy invented me over tonight for a Tiny Whoop race.. Get together.. Whatever u call it.. I had to work and don't own one.. But stopped by on my way home from work to catch the end of it. I was afforted a few packs to try it out and enjoyed it a lot.. Tons of fun. Thru kid tunnels, under tables, round the kitchen island, up staircases, etc... It was a blast! I'm getting one! Anyone know of one that works with Futaba?

It should just be building one with a compatible RX for Futaba, possibly an Orange?

Gentlemen, what would be a nice RTF/BNF tiny whoop drone that I can get into without costing an arm and a leg? I was thinking about getting something like this to play around my yard. I don't want to get into FPV racing like most of you guys but I would like to get into FPV. Since I seen theses tiny whoop, I'm interested in them too. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'll be happy with something with a monitor vs glasses. I don't even like wearing sun glasses but down here in FLA, sun glasses are a must. I was looking at this
http://www.gearbest.com/rc-quadcopters/pp_367074.html but I don't know nothing about nothing so some help would be appreciated. I Just want something to get my feet wet. I agree with you Clay, heli's is it. Once you get the hang of it.

Thanks citizen #521. That's alot more reasonable for glasses. Now I need to find a quad copter to suit me.
